A property management company looks after several hundred apartments for owners who live abroad. Rent is collected by bank transfer and matched by hand, maintenance requests arrive by phone, and owners ask for statements every month. What we would build: - Lease and tenant records with rent schedules, deposits and renewals - Online rent collection with automatic matching and reminders - Tenant app for maintenance requests with photos and status updates - Vendor work orders with approval limits and invoice capture - Owner portal with monthly statements and documents How success is measured: - Rent collected on time - Average time to close a maintenance request - Hours spent preparing owner statements - Lease renewals against move-outs ## Frequently asked questions ### How much does property management software cost to build? A full property management system with tenant, owner and technician apps typically costs USD 25,000–60,000 (about INR 20–50 lakh). A focused rent collection and tenant app costs less. ### Can tenants pay rent automatically? Yes. Tenants can set up UPI Autopay or eNACH in India, direct debit in the UK, ACH in the US or card payments, and the system reconciles payments against invoices automatically. ### Does it work for co-living and student housing? Yes. We support bed-level inventory, shared rooms, short stays, meal plans, house rules and community features that standard property software often lacks. ## Related guides - [Real estate software development company](https://www.infikeytechnologies.com/industries/real-estate): Infikey Technologies builds real estate software: property management systems, real estate CRMs for developers and brokers, property listing... - [Field service management software development](https://www.infikeytechnologies.com/industries/construction/field-service-management-software): Field service management software schedules and tracks work done at customer sites: service requests, job scheduling and dispatch, technicia... - [Construction project management software development](https://www.infikeytechnologies.com/industries/construction/construction-project-management-software): Construction project management software plans and controls building projects: schedules and milestones, daily progress reports from site, B... - [Client portal development](https://www.infikeytechnologies.com/industries/professional-services/client-portal-development): A client portal is a secure website or app where a firm’s clients log in to exchange documents, complete requests and checklists, approve de... - [Insurance agency and broker software development](https://www.infikeytechnologies.com/industries/insurance/insurance-agency-software): Insurance agency software (a broker or agency management system) manages the full distribution cycle: leads, quotes from several insurers, p... - [Solar EPC CRM and project management software](https://www.infikeytechnologies.com/industries/energy/solar-epc-crm-software): Solar EPC CRM software manages the full solar project cycle: lead capture, site survey on mobile, system sizing and proposals with savings,... - [Logistics software development company](https://www.infikeytechnologies.com/industries/logistics): Infikey Technologies builds logistics software: fleet management systems, transport management systems (TMS), warehouse management systems (... --- Source: https://www.infikeytechnologies.com/industries/real-estate/property-management-software Publisher: Infikey Technologies Private Limited (software, mobile app, AI and cloud development; offices in India, UAE, UK and US).
